Update: “Flight of the Conchords”
The Hollywood Reporter reports:
In an encouraging sign for the upcoming second season of HBO’s offbeat comedy “Flight of the Conchords,” the premiere episode has raked in some 250,000 streams in its first 10 days on Funny or Die.
That is in addition to the tens of thousands of views on HBO.com, which also showcases the season opener.
Not too bad for a show that drew 950,000 viewers for its first-season finale. And way better than the 100,000 views the first season premiere scored on MySpace last year.
This is a great news. I’m a big fan of FOTC witness posts here, here, and here. If you haven’t checked out the antics of Jeremy and Brett, go to Funny or Die. For a taste, here is a clip from season 1 called “The Humans Are Dead.”
UPDATE: Did you know that FOTC is running a lip synch contest? GITS reader Michelle Nicolosi sent me a note about it, plus a link to their entry. Outstanding!
